10 good reasons not to use Linux

This I found in a Taringa post It contains a lot of GNU / Linux related humor and is worth checking out 😀

1. You are 104 years old.

2. You don't want to change OS, and you don't want your grave desecrated.

3. You have been diagnosed with a terminal illness and have 2 days to live. It is preferable to spend them with the family.

4. You claim that because you never understood StarWars, or Star Trek, or Stargate, or Tron ... you won't understand Linux either.

5. You have no friends to rub in your face that you no longer use Windows.

6. You live in the most remote corner of Africa, in your tribe there are more serious problems than changing the Operating System.

7. You have short-term memory loss. Every 5 minutes you forget why you wanted to try Linux.

8. Linux has no minesweeper, which is the only thing you use your useless PC for.

9. You will miss formatting every two months. I wouldn't know what to do with all that free time.

10. You could never quit smoking, you never learned to drive a car, you never knew how to change a light bulb, much less, you can change the Operating System.

    I use Linux and I know it is very good, but let's be frank .. so much problem with drivers and compatibility and you have to be doing a lot, call me lazy but in that sense I prefer a little more windows = D

    1.    Courage said

      Indeed, you have not looked for the drivers, if you look you will find them, whoever wants something costs him (in most cases)

        The issue of drivers also in windows I had to fight it, especially because the drivers of the audio card that my hp carries, were like the Rear, and I could not find how to update them XD

    2.    liamngls said

      What a bullshit argument that of the drivers, is at least 20 years old, that some Windows fanboys believe that because their system remains practically unchanged over time (always the same errors) the rest do not evolve either.

      Everyone who uses what they want but let's not be wrong that I have installed Debian rather recently and I have not had a single problem, or drivers or anything and if you install other distros more oriented to the novice user like Ubuntu ... all chewed up, much more than when you buy the computer.

      So let's leave it at 2: you don't want to change operating systems (and point ball).

    Hehe… and guess… with Wine comes the minesweeper on Linux! At least in OpenSuSE!

  5.   Courage said

    You have no friends to rub in your face that you no longer use Windows.

    Man I am a 100% antisocial without a single friend but it is not necessary to rub it to anyone. Total those I know are old uneducated who do not have IT NPI hahahaha

    104 years old, those of elav who is an old man hahahahaha

  6.   fredy said

    I don't have any friends, but I'll keep rubbing it in the face of everyone I can hahaha.

    1.    Courage said

      You will have some to rub it

  7.   Torah said

    You want to play video games.

    1.    Courage said

      To play better you buy a Play Station

  8.   Mendes said

    Very good

  9.   Christian Duran said

    I would add:
    11. You are afraid to realize that you lost so many years wasting what you have, which would be basically like putting an inflatable mattress on top of the bed and sleeping there

    Linux Is Very Good !!

    Hahahaha very good. 😀

    In my opinion, these are the reasons to stop using GNU / linux and the reasons to have GNU / linux on your PC-

    10 reasons not to have GNU / Linux on your PC

    Lack of professional programs that work in Windows, and that (office, photoshop, CorelDraw, aimp2, etc.
    Little compatibility with games or little 3D performance (due to not being its native system) such as GTA, Cs Strike, Need For Speed ​​and others.
    The Terminal is still used for many reasons. And many people either do not know, or are not interested in using the terminal.

    -Lack of union between the different distributions, for example, debian, arch, slackware, suse. There are so many distributions that it would take a long time to decide which one to install.

    -Few utilities to customize the GUI interface. And you have to read too much to know which one to choose (KDE, LXDE, Gnome, Unity).

    Many poor and unsupported applications. and in other languages.
    You use too much technical language, and a person does not necessarily have to use technical language to use their PC. There are exceptions.

    Reasons to USE GNU / Linux

    The fact of knowing that nobody spies on your activities, and you have the freedom to choose the distribution that you want.
    Few, not to mention NO viruses. You can enter web pages full of viruses designed for Windows and nothing happens to your PC

    -Better file system. Ext4 is very powerful and well organized, it is not necessary to defragment.

    -Better system management: permissions, root, etc. So it is difficult for viruses to exist.

    It allows the use of a good boot manager, GRUB, very customizable (BURG) which makes it flexible since you can have several operating systems on your PC, including Windows.
    Good update system: And informs about updates of the programs you use, whether or not they are from that distribution.
    Free programs, that is, free and open source. There are exceptions.
    There are too good programs, like VLC. In fact, I was introduced to this program using a linux distribution.
    You can select a lightweight distribution, if you have a low-resource PC.
    Designed by true Hackers. A hacker does not corrupt systems, a hacker is one who is very fond of programming and systems engineering. Those who use such knowledge for perverse purposes are crackers.
    You really learn computer science. You can modify details that you could not modify in Windows.

    -It is a recessed and portable system.

    It has too many educational and design programs, which encourage you to use them.
    You can read almost any type of file, without using third-party programs (acrobat reader, Winrar, Winzip, Nero, PowerDVD) and therefore you save on paying money to buy third-party programs.
    Better use of virtualization. Virtual machines work better.
    Less use of RAM and hard disk.

    -The internet browsing is optimal.

    Highly customizable

      The Terminal is still used for many reasons. And many people either do not know, or are not interested in using the terminal.

      It all depends on the type of user you are referring to. Not everyone uses Photoshop, for example. In my case, for what I do, GIMP + Inkscape is enough, and for music, then Amarok.

      -Lack of union between the different distributions, for example, debian, arch, slackware, suse. There are so many distributions that it would take a long time to decide which one to install.

      It's a shame that the test that was previously online is no longer there ..

      -Few utilities to customize the GUI interface. And you have to read too much to know which one to choose (KDE, LXDE, Gnome, Unity).

      I do not understand how few profits? What UI are we talking about?

      Many poor and unsupported applications. and in other languages.

      The majority in English, yes, but it is what it touches, learn or collaborate for its translation.

      You use too much technical language, and a person does not necessarily have to use technical language to use their PC. There are exceptions.

      Give me an example of that .. with Ubuntu.
